While we are at it, why don't we html'ize all the desktops so they look like win10, devoid of any character, just a whole desktop that looks like a bland rendered web-page, devoid of any decoration and with apps that take 1/2 a screen to do what was done in 1/10 the space before (not just plasma), and while we are at that, let's bork the indent and focus models and use a hodge-podge of open, save, save-as dialogs with hit-or-miss kio functionality.
